340nm UV LED excitation in time-resolved fluorescence system for europium-based immunoassays detection

Abstract: In immunoassay analyzers for in-vitro diagnostics, Xenon flash lamps have been widely used as excitation light sources. Recent advancements in UV LED technology and its advantages over the flash lamps such as smaller footprint, better wall-plug efficiency, narrow emission spectrum, and no significant afterglow, have made them attractive light sources for gated detection systems. In this paper, we report on the implementation of a 340 nm UV LED based time-resolved fluorescence system based on europium chelate a… Show more

“…The first three sources of the background depend on the excitation light intensity, whereas the detector contribution is independent of the excitation light but is a function of temperature. The absolute values of all contributions for both the LED OU and flash lamp OU were reported in [29]. Correspondingly, the noise of the measurement is defined as: In this optimization study we used the research hsTnI assay (Assay 3) to experimentally determine optimum timing parameters of the time-resolved detection of lanthanide-based chelates.…”
